Check out our visit from Steve Dent and Idaho News 6! A huge thank you to KIVI TV for spending the day with us at Sun Valley Heli Ski. We're thrilled to share what a day of heli skiing looks like - including our role in search and rescue operations in the Idaho backcountry. #Kivitv #IdahoNews6 #SunValleyHeliSki #HeliSkiing #BackcountrySkiing
This is the best-kept secret in heli-skiing…
The legendary ski town of Sun Valley, Idaho is rich in ski history. America’s first ski resort was built in 1936 near the historic mining town of Ketchum and it has been an iconic American ski resort ever since. Generations of families and adventures have been coming here to ski for 75 years.
Sun Valley is also the birthplace of helicopter skiing in the US. Our company was the first heli-ski operation in the US, and with one of the largest permits of back-country terrain, Sun Valley has endless skiing and riding options. While Sun Valley is known around the globe for its incredible service and family friendly community, few know about the enormity and quality of the back-country skiing in the Sawtooth, Pioneer, and Smoky Mountains – accessible right behind the resort.
